My libido has never been particularly off the charts but, lately, I've come to feel that—due to the perpetually barren desert between my legs – I'll never find my way out of this vast Sahara of a sex life. It's disconcerting. It's frustrating. But I'm not the only one. Luckily, you can turn your libido around.
It's not just for professional strippers anymore. Pole dancing has become an accepted form of exercise and possibly the new foreplay - if you dare.
Dr. John Gray explains why women's sexual satisfaction matters in couples sex.
Dr. John Gray helps a woman whose boyfriend doesn't kiss her as much anymore. For women, it turns out, kissing is an essential part of foreplay.
Just a few short years ago, I was your basic art school student, following all the latest trends in indie rock, guzzling PBR, shooting movies, but... not having sex. No, I wasn't a late bloomer and I didn't have trouble relating to women my own age. I was celibate.
My cell phone is more broke than I am. Over the weekend, I got a case of the butterfingers and dropped it again—now it won't text. Wah! Is it trying to ruin my social/sex life? Without the ability to sext, my game is weak! I know a few dudes are missing my steamy messages. Before you judge typing with one hand, here's why you shouldn't knock it till you've tried it!
Some might say a lacy teddy or a feather tickler is more of a gift for him than for me—selfish, even. But I love sexy holiday gifts. Not only am I a little greedy when it comes to my lingerie drawer, but I love the reminder that my guy thinks I'm a sex goddess! That said, I get why some guys are afraid to shop for lingerie. The best sexy-gift shopping occurs through interpreting another person's fantasies; the gift should really reflect the way the woman sees herself in bed, not the way the man sees his lady. If she's classy, then don't go klassy. In my mind, I'm burlesque star Dita Von Teese in bed, so I'll be bewildered, to say the least, by a present in the style of Boob Job McGee, Tara Reid.
Living together in a really tiny apartment. How to be a bad boyfriend. Chaps who go to all-boys schools become bad boyfriends, usually. What the contents of her purse mean. Learning love from the Jersey Shore. Surprising stats about sex and fidelity. Joy Behar says Rachel Utichel is a hooker (more or less). Maybe monogamy is the unusual thing, hmmm? Delving into the meaning of mixed tapes. Alienation of affection. Loving her feet and disclosing a foot fetish. When you discover someone who is almost, nearly "the one." And why didn't he call you back?
I don't think many women will disagree with the idea that foreplay is a must before having sex with a man for the first time. There's nothing more disappointing than having a man just trying to jump on top of you without giving your some mouth love- dry sex is as uncomfortable as a vending machine tampon. Agreed? Only during quickies should you forego oral sex. Any other time you better expect the man to get on his knees and give you some tongue action. I actually have to come out and admit that oral sex in porn is such a huge turn on. It's so sexy to see a man on his knees eating a woman and watching her get off as he licks her plate clean. It's hot.
One-third of women surveyed in a new study said they are more likely to climax if the man had a longer than average "member," which we suppose makes sense. Further analysis of the results proved that penis size and duration of sexytime all played important factors. But suspiciously absent from the list? Foreplay!
Take your sex play out of the bedroom and into the world. And don't forget the foreplay!
Stuck in the same old sex routine? Spice up your love life by moving it out of the bedroom.
Women's Health has a great feature this month about bringing your breasts into sex.

Dirty talk is a real turn-on for lots and lots of people. But learning what to say in bed is just as important as what not to say. Here's a quick (and dirty) guide to talking dirty during sex.
There's nothing wrong with a hot-n-heavy game of dirty cowboy. And according to Deborah Yvette Parker, that's all she and her commonlaw husband, Broderick Craig Crachian, were partaking in when he died of an accidental gunshot wound to the chest. Describing her as "extremely distraught," Parker's court-appointed attorney, Murray Newman, explained to the Houston Chronicle that: "She loves him, and this is just a terrible accident."
